Lockdown / trains will move according to the stage ; will not stop at the district with even single infected case, the coach will not have a middle berth book.
The 21-day lockdown in the country is completing two weeks today. Meanwhile, there has been a churn in the government on ways to get out of lockdown. However, it is not yet clear whether the lockdown will end after April 14 or move forward. The government prepares to provide relief to the people as well as protect them from the danger of infection whenever it is over. A draft plan proposes to break down the states by dividing the states into four parts. According to this, in a district where there will be no patient, people will be allowed to move inside the district with certain conditions. In some districts, rail and bus as well as air services can start. If the railway service starts, the train’s middle berth will not be booked. In most districts, schools, colleges, parks, cinemas, commercial and private establishments will remain closed. Trains will not stop in those districts where there will be a single corona infected patient.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Medi has instructed all ministers to make plans on a war footing to minimize the economic impact of Karenavirus. He said that this crisis has brought us an opportunity to promote ‘Make in India’ and reduce dependence on other countries. He took a cabinet meeting through video conferencing.
Middle berth book will not be available in the train, thermal scanning will be done
Apart from rail, bus and air passengers, different precautions have been given for those working here. Thermal scanning will be necessary at the court, courier service, railway station. The train will not have a middle berth book. Platform tickets are suggested to be expensive. TTE will check with an infrared thermometer. There is also a suggestion to provide masks and sanitizer pouches to passengers in the train. The airport will have a separate line for boarding passes for the elderly, pregnant and children. Passengers will not be allowed into the airport three hours before the time of the flight.
Understand how the basis for removal of ban
This will be the scale | Stage 4 | Stage 3 | Stage 2 | Stage-1 |
7 days active patient | 50 or more | 20 or more | Less than 20 | Less than 15, not new case |
Effect of active patients(Large states) | More than 40% | More than 30% | Up to 30% (in more than 1 district) | 1 district |
Prevalence of active patients (small states) | More than 75% and larger urban centersBe impressed | More than 50% and / or more districts | Two or more districts other than large urban center districts | District 1 apart from large urban centers |
1 million per active patient | 2 or more | 1 to 2 | 0.01 to 1 | 0.01 or less |
(Method of calculation of prevalence of active patients; Total active patients = number of districts where there are active patients / Total number of districts in that state multiplied by 100)
According to the stage, the lockdown will be finished
Stage 4: Necessary facilities will run, people above 65 will not leave the house and
will not be able to go to another state. Unreserved tickets will not be available on the train. Bus trains will have one-third less tickets than capacity.
